Unger added to Rimington list

Blog Links

It was an unbelievable omission when Max Unger, the former Hawaii Preparatory Academy standout who is a rising senior at Oregon, was left off the 2008 Rimington Trophy watch list of 42 released last week.

The award is given to the best center in the nation and Unger was first-team All-American (for Sports Illustrated) and first-team All-Pac-10 Conference last season.

Anyway, the oversight has been corrected and the list is now 43 (including Unger). Click the link to check out a blog that explains it all pretty well.

Nobody who lives here is from any of those places or has been to any of those places or has any friends or family who have been to any of those places or live in those places. Except the two guys from Maui in the major leagues. Those are the only two guys on the mainland that The Maui News should have in the sports pages.
